Bucky Who

Summary:

A companion piece to the TV chapter of To Have a Home. Join Bucky Barnes as he texts his way through Seasons 1-9 of New Who, laughs, cries, and rages about historical inaccuracies.

Notes:

This was going to be what chapter 5 of To Have a Home was actually going to look like, but then I decided to take a different approach. You absolutely don't need to read this to understand anything else in the main fic, nor do you necessarily need to read the rest of To Have a Home to understand anything here (although at least reading the rest of the TV chapter might help).

Chapter 1: Season 1

Chapter Text

Bucky: [Okay I just finished the first episode.]

Bucky: [We’ve already got alien time travelers, some sort of space war, murder mannequins, and exploding buildings.]

Bucky: [I’m not sure how much crazier this show can get.]

Sam: [oh]

Sam: [oh man you just wait]


 

Bucky: [Okay I’ll admit, I was not expecting the tin can robot to be that genuinely scary.]

Bucky: [But wow that thing inside it opens up so many questions]

Bucky: [Are Daleks really not capable of emotion without outside influence?]

Bucky: [Who the hell programmed them so that they see emotion as a “sickness”?]

Bucky: [If they evolved as those blobs, how did they even build those metal casings?]

Bucky: [And if they didn’t, how long have they be devolving? What did they look like before? What were they?]

Bucky: [Oh well, if that was the last one we’ll probably never know.]

Sam: [umm]

Steve: [Just keep watching…]


 

Bucky: [YOU DIDN’T TELL ME THIS SHOW WAS GOING TO MAKE ME CRY]

Sam: [Which episode?]

Bucky: [FATHER’S DAY]

Bucky: [Wait sorry didn’t mean to capslock that]

Bucky: [Or maybe I did]

Bucky: [Because wow that hurt]

Bucky: [That had to be the saddest episode of the entire show.]

Natasha: [Oh dear]

Sam: [ahahahahahahaha]

Sam: [AHAHAHAHAHA]

Steve: [Sam]

Sam: [AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA]

Steve: [Sam no]

Sam: [OHOHOHO MAAAAAN]

Bucky: [wow what]

Sam: [YOU JUST WAIT LIL BUCKAROO]

Sam: [YOU. JUST. WAIT.]

Bucky: [Okay I’ll heed your warning if you promise to never call me Lil Buckaroo again.]

Sam: [Deal]

Natasha: [You might like the next two, Barnes. World War II story.]


 

Bucky: [Okay Steve, be honest…]

Bucky: [You, me, and Captain Jack]

Steve: [Yes?]

Bucky: [What if we did]

Steve: [What if we did what?]

Bucky: […Steve come on, we both know I don’t need to fill in the blank here]

Bucky: [If we could, would you?]

Steve: [Huh, I hadn’t thought of that before.]

Steve: [Yeah, sure]

Bucky: [:)]

Bucky: [On a heavier note, wow]

Bucky: [I mean, we saw some wild things fighting Hydra, but this was something else.]

Bucky: [I honestly shudder to think what would’ve happened if they’d managed to weaponize spooky children.]

Bucky: [“Just this once, everybody lives” though…]


 

Bucky: [OKAY THERE ARE A LOT OF DALEKS]

Bucky: [IT TOOK THEM AN ENTIRE EPISODE AND HOW MANY DEAD SOLDIERS TO TAKE DOWN JUST ONE????]

Sam: [Okay so]

Sam: [I think it’s time I introduced you to the Law of of Conservation of Ninjutsu.]


 

Bucky: [Oh damn]

Bucky: [So Rose basically became God for a few minutes and then she got fixed because the Doctor kissed her?]

Sam: [Trust me, this is NOT the weirdest romance that happens on this show.]

Bucky: [Huh. Okay.]

Bucky: [That ending, though.]

Bucky: [I thought I was gonna cry again but then freaking BARCELONA]

Steve: [Doesn’t he have great hair, though?]

Bucky: [YES]

Bucky: [Steve you should definitely try that do]
